Popis: In the laboratory, 96 h LC50 values for rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) revealed that an SC formulation of the pyrethroid insecticide alphacypermethrin was much less toxic to fish than an EC formulation. Small scale enclosure tests carried out in the UK in an outdoor pond confirmed the lower hazard of the SC formulation.
